🚲 Welcome to E-Bikers Club
Did you know that kids ages 10–15 are 5 times more likely than other age groups to need an ambulance after an e-bike crash? That’s why we’re working to make e-bike riding safer for everyone in Marin.
Marin has new e-bike laws:
- Class 2 throttle e-bikes are for riders 16 years old and up
- Helmets are required for all ages (no exceptions!)
You can help keep Marin rolling safely by picking the right bike for your age and skill level—whether it’s a regular bike or an e-bike.
Prioritize safety while prioritizing fun.
Ride smart. Ride safe. Let’s keep rolling, Marin!
